Women’s Corner: “The Curious Case of Beauty and the Beast”

The phenomenal WTF? question recently has been “WHY/HOW do beautiful women date UGLY Men?” It’s often chalked up to a stereotype of being a gold digger or an escort  of some sort.  But the mere fact that the obvious, is not really obvious, is what amazes individuals looking inward from an ignorant perspective.  So now you’re wondering what the answer is to all your mind boggling perceptions about “Beauty and the Beast” relationships.

The answer isn’t one that is that difficult to fathom nor is it one that the average person may have ‘presumed’ because unless you are in the said “Beauty and the Beast” relationship –you can only assume, like the outsider that you are. Ironically enough though, when women date ‘Ugly’. Most times, surprisingly it never has anything to do with the riches.

What women find out from going after the “bad boy” is often times they put up a front, because they are afraid to be sensitive. Their mentalities being “I gotta be HARD!”, these “alpha males”, usually have egos the size of “Gibraltar” hanging from their chains resting on their manufactured chests. Where as, the not so good looking guys take advantage of befriending a beautiful woman  because they are the ones that always seem to be there when she’s ‘trippin’ off mister “swag swag” himself.

The so called “Mister Ugly Man” is always there– without fail, without judgement and often understands her insecurities that most do not think exist. He knows how to charm her and make her feel comfortable, without feeling overpowered by his obvious attraction. He knows how to be a gentleman and make her feel wanted and not neglected. He’s proud to have her on his arm and knows how to make her laugh and have a damn good time without feeling silly.

What woman, beautiful or not doesn’t want this from a man? No disrespect to the good looking guys but the “Ugly” wins because the woman doesn’t have to be anymore beautiful than she already is for him, even with a charming personality,   36: 25: 38, a PHD and a milli in the bank. Even if she is on her way to that, what more do we need to impress you with?

It’s not about settling, it’s always been about finding that person who makes you happy and loves you for who you are regardless of money, elite status or material things. If the friendship is there in the beginning, it’s easier to find that happiness that one deserves, it honestly doesn’t matter if one is ugly or not. Point is, you shouldn’t be judging who is who or why a person is with another person. Be you and find your own happiness in yourself and then happiness will follow suit.

“Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.” – Confucius
